The human T developmental gene has been implicated in the etiology of neural tube defects (NTDs) on the basis both of mouse studies of its homologue, T (Brachyury), and of allelic association in a Caucasian population. We have investigated the frequency of the T allelic variant TIVS7-2 in 218 Iri...
